| (D) Speed, in $ms^{-1}$ , at $t = 4$ s | (s) -4 |
| (t) None of these |
Correct Answer: A → (q) B → (r) C → (s) D → (p)
Explanation:
A → (q)
$\mathrm{B} \rightarrow (\mathrm{r})$
$C \to (\mathrm{s})$
$\mathrm{D} \rightarrow (\mathrm{p})$
$x = - 5 t ^ {2} + 2 0 t + 1 0$
$\Rightarrow \frac {d x}{d t} = - 1 0 t + 2 0$
$\Rightarrow v = 2 0 - 1 0 t\tag{... (1}$
Now v=0 at t=2 s, so the distance travelled by the particle from t=0 to t=3 s is
$x = \left| \int_ {0} ^ {2} v d t \right| + \left| \int_ {2} ^ {3} v d t \right|$
$\mathrm{Now} \int v d t = (2 0 - 1 0 t) d t$
$\Rightarrow \int v d t = 2 0 t - 5 t ^ {2}$
$\Rightarrow x = \left| (2 0 t - 5 t ^ {2}) \right| _ {0} ^ {2} + \left| (2 0 t - 5 t ^ {2}) \right| _ {2} ^ {3}$
$\Rightarrow x = \vert 4 0 - 2 0 \vert + \vert 8 0 - 8 0 - 4 0 + 2 0 \vert$
$\Rightarrow x = | 2 0 | + | - 2 0 |$
$\Rightarrow x = 4 0 \mathrm{m}$
So, average speed is
$v _ {a v} = \frac {x}{t} = \frac {4 0}{4} = 1 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
Displacement of the particle from t = 0 to t = 4 s is
$\Delta x = \int_ {0} ^ {4} v d t = \int_ {0} ^ {4} (2 0 - 1 0 t) d t$
$\Rightarrow \Delta x = (2 0 t - 5 t ^ {2}) \big | _ {0} ^ {4}$
$\Rightarrow \Delta x = 8 0 - 8 0 = 0$
So, average velocity is
$v _ {a v} = \frac {\Delta x}{\Delta t} = \frac {0}{4} = 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
From (1), $a = \frac{dv}{dt} = -10\mathrm{ms}^{-2}$
$u = v | _ {t = 0} = 2 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
Since, initially $u = \oplus$ and $a = \ominus$ , so a happens to be retardation for the motion from t = 0 to t = 2 s (till its velocity becomes zero momentarily i.e., the particle reverses its direction of motion).
Velocity at $t = 4$ s is
$v | _ {t = 4 \mathrm{s}} = 2 0 - 1 0 (4) = - 2 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
Hence, speed at t = 4 s is $20 \, ms^{-1}$
$\mathrm{B} \rightarrow (\mathrm{r})$
$C \to (\mathrm{s})$
$\mathrm{D} \rightarrow (\mathrm{p})$
$x = - 5 t ^ {2} + 2 0 t + 1 0$
$\Rightarrow \frac {d x}{d t} = - 1 0 t + 2 0$
$\Rightarrow v = 2 0 - 1 0 t\tag{... (1}$
Now v=0 at t=2 s, so the distance travelled by the particle from t=0 to t=3 s is
$x = \left| \int_ {0} ^ {2} v d t \right| + \left| \int_ {2} ^ {3} v d t \right|$
$\mathrm{Now} \int v d t = (2 0 - 1 0 t) d t$
$\Rightarrow \int v d t = 2 0 t - 5 t ^ {2}$
$\Rightarrow x = \left| (2 0 t - 5 t ^ {2}) \right| _ {0} ^ {2} + \left| (2 0 t - 5 t ^ {2}) \right| _ {2} ^ {3}$
$\Rightarrow x = \vert 4 0 - 2 0 \vert + \vert 8 0 - 8 0 - 4 0 + 2 0 \vert$
$\Rightarrow x = | 2 0 | + | - 2 0 |$
$\Rightarrow x = 4 0 \mathrm{m}$
So, average speed is
$v _ {a v} = \frac {x}{t} = \frac {4 0}{4} = 1 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
Displacement of the particle from t = 0 to t = 4 s is
$\Delta x = \int_ {0} ^ {4} v d t = \int_ {0} ^ {4} (2 0 - 1 0 t) d t$
$\Rightarrow \Delta x = (2 0 t - 5 t ^ {2}) \big | _ {0} ^ {4}$
$\Rightarrow \Delta x = 8 0 - 8 0 = 0$
So, average velocity is
$v _ {a v} = \frac {\Delta x}{\Delta t} = \frac {0}{4} = 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
From (1), $a = \frac{dv}{dt} = -10\mathrm{ms}^{-2}$
$u = v | _ {t = 0} = 2 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
Since, initially $u = \oplus$ and $a = \ominus$ , so a happens to be retardation for the motion from t = 0 to t = 2 s (till its velocity becomes zero momentarily i.e., the particle reverses its direction of motion).
Velocity at $t = 4$ s is
$v | _ {t = 4 \mathrm{s}} = 2 0 - 1 0 (4) = - 2 0 \mathrm{ms} ^ {- 1}$
Hence, speed at t = 4 s is $20 \, ms^{-1}$

$\mathrm{B} \rightarrow (\mathrm{p})$
$\mathrm{C} \rightarrow (\mathrm{q})$

$x = (t - 3) ^ {2}$

A man can row a boat with $4 \, kmh^{-1}$ in still water. The man wishes to cross the river of width 4 km having a water current of $2 \, kmhr^{-1}$ . To cross the river with zero drift he swims making at an angle $\alpha$ degree with the current flow taking a time $t_{1}$ minutes to cross the river.
Now he wishes to cross the river in the shortest time $t_{2}$ minutes making an angle $\beta$ degree with the river flow.
Further he takes a time $t_{3}$ minutes to row 2 km upstream and then downstream back to the start point. Assuming all the cases to be independent of each other, the man to start from the river bank from the same point in the first two cases and from the midpoint of the river in the third case, match the quantities in COLUMN-I to the values in COLUMN-II.
| COLUMN-I | COLUMN-II |
|---|---|
| (A) $\alpha$ | (p) $40\sqrt{3}$ |
| (B) $\beta$ | (q) 60 |
| (C) $t_{1}$ | (r) 80 |
| (D) $t_{2}$ | (s) 90 |
| (E) $t_{3}$ | (t) 120 |
| (u) Zero |
Correct Answer: A → (t) B → (s) C → (p) D → (q) E → (r)
Explanation:
A → (t)
$\mathrm{B} \rightarrow (\mathrm{s})$
$C \rightarrow (p)$
$\mathrm{D} \rightarrow (\mathrm{q})$
$\mathrm{E} \rightarrow (\mathrm{r})$
Given, that $v_{br} = 4 \, kmhr^{-1}$ and $v_{r} = 2 \, kmhr^{-1}$
$\Rightarrow \quad \alpha = \sin^ {- 1} \left(\frac {v _ {r}}{v _ {b r}}\right) = \sin^ {- 1} \left(\frac {2}{4}\right) = \sin^ {- 1} \left(\frac {1}{2}\right) = 3 0 ^ {\circ}$
Hence, to reach the point directly opposite to starting point he should head the boat at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with AB or $90^{\circ} + 30^{\circ} = 120^{\circ}$ with the river flow.

Time taken by the boatman to cross the river for zero drift condition is
$t _ {1} = \frac {l}{v _ {b r} \cos \alpha}$
where $l = 4 \, km$ , $v_{br} = 4 \, kmh^{-1}$ and $\alpha = 30^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow t _ {1} = \frac {4}{4 \cos (3 0 ^ {\circ})} = \frac {2}{\sqrt {3}} \mathrm{hr}$
$\Rightarrow t_{1} = \frac{120}{\sqrt{3}} = 40\sqrt{3}$ minute
For shortest time $\theta=0^{\circ}$ i.e., the man must row the boat perpendicular to the river flow. So $\beta=90^{\circ}$
and $t_{\min}=t_{2}=\frac{l}{v_{br}\cos(0^{\circ})}=\frac{4}{4}=1\mathrm{hr}=60\mathrm{minute}$

Hence, he should head his boat perpendicular to the river current for crossing the river in shortest time and this shortest time $t_{2}$ of 60 minute.
$t = t _ {P \to Q} + t _ {Q \to P}$
$\Rightarrow t = \frac {P Q}{v _ {b r} + v _ {r}} + \frac {Q P}{v _ {b r} + v _ {r}}$
$\Rightarrow t = \frac {2}{4 + 2} + \frac {2}{4 - 2} = \frac {4}{3} \mathrm{hr}$
$\Rightarrow$ t = 80 minute
$\mathrm{B} \rightarrow (\mathrm{s})$
$C \rightarrow (p)$
$\mathrm{D} \rightarrow (\mathrm{q})$
$\mathrm{E} \rightarrow (\mathrm{r})$
Given, that $v_{br} = 4 \, kmhr^{-1}$ and $v_{r} = 2 \, kmhr^{-1}$
$\Rightarrow \quad \alpha = \sin^ {- 1} \left(\frac {v _ {r}}{v _ {b r}}\right) = \sin^ {- 1} \left(\frac {2}{4}\right) = \sin^ {- 1} \left(\frac {1}{2}\right) = 3 0 ^ {\circ}$
Hence, to reach the point directly opposite to starting point he should head the boat at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with AB or $90^{\circ} + 30^{\circ} = 120^{\circ}$ with the river flow.

Time taken by the boatman to cross the river for zero drift condition is
$t _ {1} = \frac {l}{v _ {b r} \cos \alpha}$
where $l = 4 \, km$ , $v_{br} = 4 \, kmh^{-1}$ and $\alpha = 30^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow t _ {1} = \frac {4}{4 \cos (3 0 ^ {\circ})} = \frac {2}{\sqrt {3}} \mathrm{hr}$
$\Rightarrow t_{1} = \frac{120}{\sqrt{3}} = 40\sqrt{3}$ minute
For shortest time $\theta=0^{\circ}$ i.e., the man must row the boat perpendicular to the river flow. So $\beta=90^{\circ}$
and $t_{\min}=t_{2}=\frac{l}{v_{br}\cos(0^{\circ})}=\frac{4}{4}=1\mathrm{hr}=60\mathrm{minute}$

Hence, he should head his boat perpendicular to the river current for crossing the river in shortest time and this shortest time $t_{2}$ of 60 minute.
$t = t _ {P \to Q} + t _ {Q \to P}$
$\Rightarrow t = \frac {P Q}{v _ {b r} + v _ {r}} + \frac {Q P}{v _ {b r} + v _ {r}}$
$\Rightarrow t = \frac {2}{4 + 2} + \frac {2}{4 - 2} = \frac {4}{3} \mathrm{hr}$
$\Rightarrow$ t = 80 minute

A body accelerates from rest for time $t_{1}$ at a constant rate $\alpha$ for distance x then it decelerates at constant rate $\beta$ for time $t_{2}$ and covers distance y in this time and come at rest. If all quantities are in SI units, then match the following columns.
| COLUMN-I | COLUMN-II |
|---|---|
| (A) $\frac{x}{y}$ | (p) $\frac{t_{1}}{t_{2}}$ |
| (B) $\frac{\alpha}{\beta}$ | (q) $\frac{t_{2}}{t_{1}}$ |
| (C) average speed for whole journey | (r) $\sqrt{\frac{2\alpha\beta}{\alpha+\beta}(x+y)}$ |
| (D) Maximum speed attained in it whole journey | (s) $\sqrt{\frac{\alpha\beta}{\alpha+\beta}\left(\frac{x+y}{2}\right)}$ |
Correct Answer: A → (p) B → (q) C → (s) D → (r)
Explanation:
A → (p)
$\mathrm{B} \rightarrow (\mathrm{q})$
$C \to (s)$
$\mathrm{D} \rightarrow (\mathrm{r})$
$\frac {v _ {m}}{t _ {1}} = \alpha \mathrm{and} \frac {v _ {m}}{t _ {2}} = \beta$
$\text { Also } x + y = \frac {1}{2} \times v _ {m} \times \left(t _ {1} + t _ {2}\right)$

$\Rightarrow \quad (x + y) = \frac {1}{2} \times v _ {m} \times \left(\frac {v _ {m}}{\alpha} + \frac {v _ {m}}{\beta}\right)$
$\Rightarrow v _ {m} = \sqrt {\frac {2 (x + y) \alpha \beta}{(\alpha + \beta)}}$
Now, $v_{av}=\frac{x+y}{t_{1}+t_{2}}=\frac{x+y}{\frac{v_{m}}{\alpha}+\frac{v_{m}}{\beta}}=\frac{\alpha\beta}{\alpha+\beta}\cdot\frac{x+y}{v_{m}}$
$\mathrm{B} \rightarrow (\mathrm{q})$
$C \to (s)$
$\mathrm{D} \rightarrow (\mathrm{r})$
$\frac {v _ {m}}{t _ {1}} = \alpha \mathrm{and} \frac {v _ {m}}{t _ {2}} = \beta$
$\text { Also } x + y = \frac {1}{2} \times v _ {m} \times \left(t _ {1} + t _ {2}\right)$

$\Rightarrow \quad (x + y) = \frac {1}{2} \times v _ {m} \times \left(\frac {v _ {m}}{\alpha} + \frac {v _ {m}}{\beta}\right)$
$\Rightarrow v _ {m} = \sqrt {\frac {2 (x + y) \alpha \beta}{(\alpha + \beta)}}$
Now, $v_{av}=\frac{x+y}{t_{1}+t_{2}}=\frac{x+y}{\frac{v_{m}}{\alpha}+\frac{v_{m}}{\beta}}=\frac{\alpha\beta}{\alpha+\beta}\cdot\frac{x+y}{v_{m}}$

| (D) Dependency of acceleration on time is given by | (s)![]() |
Correct Answer: A → (s) B → (r) C → (q) D → (p)
Explanation:
A → (s)
$\mathrm{C} \rightarrow (\mathrm{q})$
Acceleration is constant and is equal to acceleration due to gravity, which is acting vertically downwards i.e. in the positive direction, so (p) represents the a-t graph for the motion.
Since $v = u + at$ and $s = \Delta y = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$

Before collision, v = gt {∵ u = 0}
So, before collision velocity is increasing linearly with time and is increasing. However, after collision velocity decreases with time linearly and is negative as in (r).
$y = \frac {1}{2} g t ^ {2}$
tive, whereas after collision, the displacement is $y = -v_{0}t + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ and is positive (a parabola opening
(upwards). Here is the tricky part, as we have taken the origin at the point from where the ball is dropped and in both the cases of upward and downward motion, the displacement is downwards and hence displacement is positive in both the cases.
The distance-time graph is positive and always increasing.
